Sir Godfrey Wyatville. Half mile from
Windsor Castle is the small palace
Of Frogmore, which was the resi-
dence of Queen Charlotte and
of Queen Victorias mother, the
Duchess of Kent. Despite the royal splen-
doris of Windsor, the Queen is much fonder
of her Balmoral home, where she still
spends the most Of her time. The palace
is in the midst of tract of 100000 acres
and is located in the parish of Crarthie,
Aberdeenshire, on the banks of the river
Dee. The Queens daughter Beatrice has
been her constant companion for many
years, and since her marriage TO Prince
Battenburg has remained almost as near
to her. At Balmoral the Queen lives
quietly, walks and rides around her great
estate, reads and studies, attends to state
matters, visits the cottages, keeps a minute
diary, and lays aside royal etiquette to a
large extent. She has few visitors, except
the Prince and Princess of Wales and her
numerous grandchildren. The Queen has
seven living children. thirty-one grand
children, and six great grandchildren.
There are only half dozen attendants and
dozen servants at Balmoral, and little or
no excitement.

The Royal Household.

There is big force of attendants, prob
ably LOCO, at Windsor Castle. At the head
of the household forces is the Lord Stew
ard, with a salary of 100000 a year, APP
pointed by the Prime Minister, and there
fore political official. He is COM
mander- in chief of every employee in the
household, except the ladies directly about
the person of the Queen, the religious staff
and the stable corps. He appears at court
on state occasions, and appoints all his SUBJ
ordinates. His lieutenant is the master Of
the household, who receives Il 200 year,
and has a private secretary at a good sal
AIRY. Next comes the lord treasurer of the
household, who pays the bills and gets a
salary Of II 900 year. These three con-
stitute the board of green cloth, and sit as
judges of all offenses committed in the pal
ace; and TO assist them and keep the record
they have one secretary at 81 800 year

four assistant cooks at 1.750 EACH the
chief confectioner at 81 800 and his assist
ant at 81 ,2C0, the chief butler at S2,5C0,
the table decker at 81 900, and his assist
ants at salaries somewhat less. There are
also yeomen of the pan.ries, ladies of the
linen room and a vast array of chamber
maids, mp-lighters, washers, etc. The
coal department alone employs thirteen
persons. Directly about her Majesty's
person are the mistress of the robes, the
groom of the robes, the keeper of the pri-
vate purse, or financial secretary to the
Queen, eight maids of honor, as many
bed chamber women and numerous maids
for other functions all these under con-
troll of the lord chamberlain. who receives
$4,000 year and is assisted by the groom
of the stole. Next to the ladies who attend
directly on the Queen come the gentlemen
of the private household, viz: Eight lords
in waiting, as many grooms ia waiting and
divers gentlemen ushers Of the privy cham
Der, grooms of the privy chamber, grooms
of the great chamber and pages of the back
stairs. In short, life at the court, even in
the most ordinary times, is carried on with
such ponderous social machinery and
routine that IL almost makes one tired TO
hear of it. But, in addition to all these,
there are two distinct sets of officials for
extraordinary occasions with Independent
functions and different codes of ceremoni-
al and etiquette. At the head of one of
these is the marshal of the ceremonies. He
manages the etiquette on the state occa-
sions and conducts foreign ambassadors
to the Queens presence. The 9TH
er is the court of the Marshalsea, which
has legal jurisdiction of all crimes and mis-
demeanors committed within the Queens
private domain. 1t is regular court of
justice, with the same general law as other
English courts. but with far more cere-
mony, and vastly more expense in pro-
portion to the work it does. The knight
marshal, who is the same as sheriff or po-
lice to this court, is tolerably important

deputies, besides few servants and secre-
taries. The foregoing gives but mere out

yictoria,s Domestic Relations.

Victoria was in her eighteenth year when
she became Queen. William ". died on
June 20, and the English dignitaries went
before daylight to announce to Princess
Victoria her accession, and it is related
that she came out in her night dress,
shawl around her and her feet in slippers,
and it was at once decided to call a privy
council meeting for ii o'clock in the fore
noon, when the new Queen took the cor
onation oath. The public coronation, and
the most brilliant pageantry of modern
times, did not take place until the next June,
and on the 2Sth day of that month, 1888,
the great ceremonies took place. According
to royal etiquette it is necessary for the
Queen to make the first suggestion of mar
rage. This she did late in 1889, and in
February, 1910, she was married to her
cousin. They had long been lovers, and they
were most devoted couple. The Prince
Consort died suddenly in 1861, leaving
nine children, seven of whom are still
alive. The Queen was utterly disconsolate,
and for years lived in the closest seclu-
sion. In fact she so closely secluded herself
that her subjects have found great deal

About the only topic discussed in Lon

writes Mr.. Robert p. Porter from London.

Eour toothbrush, have crown and the
word Jubilee worked or painted upon them.
Columns of the daily journals are devoted
to advertising word competitions and other
devices for extracting the pennies, the
shillings and the pounds from the
pockets Of loyal people for Jubilee pur-
poses. The present may be termed a
period of assessment.

The life of her Majesty is marked by
three stages-her youth, her married life,
and her widowhood. Each is bound to
each by the tie of consistent growth
passing through those experiences which
are typical of Gods education of His chill

Her childhood, with its wise education, is
very much the key to her after,life. Pos

What .Reform'' Does for Cleveland.

President Grover Cleveland and his
advisers in those quiet moments when
they look each other in the face and speak
candidly, must thank their lucky stars for
the value of reform" to the administration
making "clean sweep"
Wholesale removals at the start would
have reused the public, dislocated the ma
chinery of Government and squandered
patronage on the men who had given
Grover Cleveland one term and who would
have small power in giving him another.
But mark the perfect work of reform" and
consider how good its end is.
BY waiting and practicing reform" every
Internal Revenue Collector but one has
been removed, and clean sweep has
been made in this great machine which
networks every whisky, every beer,
and every tobacco State, with agents big
and little. Reform" has made "clean
sweep" possible in all the Presidential
postoffces but a hundred or so, and so
long rs toe hundred include New York,
the papers are silent. Yet in the polit-
ical game the pawns win every time. The
New York postoffice never has controlled
delegates TO national convention; but tho
postotlices in the interior cities are always
able 10 influence their choice. Assistant
Postmaster General Stevenson recently
owned up to $4,000 new Democratic post
masters in the lesser places paying less
than 81. 200 year. By autumn 10000 to
5000 of the 80, 900 will be Democrats. If
this is not clean sweep" what is it?
Yet under the sacred shadow of reform"
this great change has come over the land
like a summer cloud. The custom houses,
with here and there one on the outermost
Dough, are all Democratic. The great bulk
of appointed officers have changed in sue
cession many when they would do the most
good, in the third year of the Presidents
term.
By the time the work of choosing dele
gates to the next National Convention is
over the change will be complete. TIE
"clean sweep" will have come. A Presi-
dent elected on pledge that the Offices
should no longer be public spoils" will
have distributed nine-tenths of them in his
own party.
And every mugwump in the land, in a
spirit mot of criticism but of confidence"
will be spying: For what we have re-
ceived may we be truly thankful. "-Phila-

HOW TO MILK COWS.
The Importance and Advantages OF Rapi
and Continued Milking.

The Importance and Advantages OF Rapid
and Continued Milking.
Those who have the care of cows do
not always understand the Importance
of quiet treatment and dispatch in milk
ing, in order to secure the best returns.
1t will very frequently be noticed that
when the mixer first grasps the teats,
the COW, by drawing the tendons tighter,
prevents the easy passage of the milk.
If treated kindly she soon relaXes the
tsndons, and the teats are filled at
once. If the mixer will then work
expeditiously the milk will soon be
drawn, and the whole of it obtained.
The slow mixer does not accomplish
this, for the relaxation referred to does
not usually continue long. Rapid and
continued milking is important, in
order that the udder be entirely emptied.
If the work is interrupted, u portion of
the milk is generally held back till the
next milking. 1t is most important,
too, that everything which tends to
worry, frighten or annoy the COW in
any way be avoided, such rs loud talk
ing, the presence of strange persons, OF
animals. etc. While many do not object
TO the mixers singing, our experience
has been that such an one does not give
the same attention to the work, and
hence does not accomplish it so rapidly
